Description
The Super Swede with its longer scale length of 25.5 inches (648 mm) delivers a snappy and focused tone, with a defined low-frequency range.
The higher string tension ensures a clear and articulate tone that is well balanced and has an optimal response. The Lundgren Design No. 2 pickups in the neck position and the No. 5 pickups in the bridge position have been carefully tuned to offer a wide variety of tonal possibilities. The AlNiCo 2 neck pickup delivers a warm and clear sound, while the AlNiCo 5 bridge pickup delivers a powerful and concise tone. Together they provide a perfect balance of expression and presence that brings out the Super Swede's natural/unamplified tone.
